Definitions

  • the invention relates to the management of atmosphere programs for atmosphere creation systems, particularly to a user interface for comfortably selecting an atmosphere program to be activated by an atmosphere creation system.
  • Atmosphere creation systems allow controlling the creation of lighting, audio, video, scent or any combination thereof particularly in rooms or buildings in order to create a desired atmosphere.
  • Atmosphere programs control the creation of the atmosphere with an atmosphere creation system and comprise control sets for the devices, which are involved in the atmosphere creation, for example the control sets for luminaries of a lighting system, a command for a scent generator for generating a desired scent, a command for an audio/video equipment to play a certain video and sound file.
  • An example of an atmosphere creation system is a lighting system, even if it allows merely controlling of a lighting.
  • a lighting scene is a setting of the luminaries of a lighting system for creating a certain lighting atmosphere.
  • Lighting scenes are often used in professional environments such as shops of a retail chain in order to create a uniform lighting atmosphere in all shops.
  • many branded retail chains are very particular about their brand image and are keen to keep it the same in all the stores in their chain. Part of the brand image is also the lighting atmosphere in a shop.
  • Applying lighting scenes in shops nowadays is facing many challenges like complexity of the controller solutions, not flexible and unfriendly user interfaces, large labour-intense installation and commissioning effort, a lot of effort for troubleshooting, difficult and labour intense scene creation process and high costs of luminaries.
  • Atmosphere creation systems are further challenging than lighting systems, since the number of control- and adjustable parameters is larger. Thus, there exists a need for an easy to use atmosphere program management.
  • a basic idea of the invention is to provide a central control of atmosphere programs, particularly together with the possibility of interactively selecting an atmosphere program, for example a lighting scene to be created locally with an atmosphere creation system such as a lighting system.
  • This is particularly useful for large retail chains, which require a uniform atmosphere in all chain shops and want to provide their shop personal to select among a predefined set of atmosphere programs in a comfortable way.
  • the invention particularly allows to remotely manage atmosphere programs available for atmosphere creation systems, for example for shops of a retail chain.
  • the system may further comprise at least one client atmosphere creation system controller for accessing the server and providing a user interface for selecting an atmosphere program to be created with an atmosphere creation system being controlled by the client atmosphere creation system controller.
  • the server and remote management client are two separate computers on different locations, but they may be also implemented as two separate programs executed by one single computer.
  • the remote management client implements a central/remote user interface, while the client atmosphere creation system controller implements a local user interface. This allows controlling atmosphere program management centrally from a remote computer, and accessing the atmosphere program locally with a client atmosphere creation system controller.
  • shop personnel can use the client atmosphere creation system controllers to create atmospheres in their shop, which are centrally managed from the shop headquarter with the remote management client.
  • this embodiment makes management and usage of atmosphere programs easier and more comfortable.
  • the server may be configured to execute an atmosphere management program, which is adapted to
  • the atmosphere management program may be further adapted to load and remotely display a picture associated to an atmosphere program upon selection of the program. This helps users to quickly identify atmospheres and makes atmosphere selection more comfortable.
  • the atmosphere management program may be yet further adapted to
  • the atmosphere management program may be yet further adapted to
  • the atmosphere management program may be further adapted to allow controlling the webcam. This may help users to better monitor an atmosphere created with an atmosphere creation system.
  • a client atmosphere creation system controller may be adapted to download a list of accessible atmosphere programs from the server and to display a list with the downloaded accessible atmosphere programs in its user interface for selecting an atmosphere to be created with the atmosphere creation system being controlled by the client atmosphere creation system controller.
  • a further embodiment of the invention relates to a client atmosphere creation system controller being adapted for application in a system of the invention and as described above.
  • the controller may be a wireless mobile device, configured by a program for
  • the method may further comprise one or more of the following:
  • An embodiment of the invention provides a computer program enabling a processor to carry out the method according to the invention and as described above.
  • a record carrier storing a computer program according to the invention may be provided, for example a CD-ROM, a DVD, a memory card, a diskette, internet memory device or a similar data carrier suitable to store the computer program for optical or electronic access.
  • a further embodiment of the invention provides a computer programmed to perform a method according to the invention such as a PC (Personal Computer).
  • the computer may be used a central server of a atmosphere management system according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 an embodiment of a lighting scene management system as an example of an atmosphere management system according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 an embodiment of a user interface of lighting scene management program executed by a server of the lighting scene management system of FIG. 1 ;
  • FIG. 3 shows an embodiment of a local user interface of a mobile device serving as a client lighting system controller according to the invention
  • the invention is not limited to this application, but may be also applied to any kind of atmosphere creation systems, for example a multifunctional system which is able to create lighting, audio, video, scents, or a system for creating lighting scenes together with sounds, or a system for creating lighting scenes together with scents, or a system for creating lighting scenes together with videos.
  • atmosphere creation systems for example a multifunctional system which is able to create lighting, audio, video, scents, or a system for creating lighting scenes together with sounds, or a system for creating lighting scenes together with scents, or a system for creating lighting scenes together with videos.
  • FIG. 1 shows a lighting scene management system 10 for shops, which comprises a server 12 , a remote management client 14 , a client lighting system controller 16 , and a lighting system 18 being controlled by the client lighting system controller 16 . Only one lighting system 18 is shown as example, but typically several lighting systems of different shops are managed.
  • the devices 12 , 14 , and 16 are connected to a packet data network 24 such as the internet and can exchange packet data via a suitable protocol, for example TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol).
  • a local lighting system controller 26 which is installed in the shop for local control of luminaries 28 installed in the shop, is also connected to the packet data network 24 .
  • the server 12 may be implemented by a standard Personal Computer (PC) executing a webserver program.
  • the server 12 executes a database program 30 storing lighting scenes, i.e. the presets of luminaries of a lighting system for creating lighting scenes.
  • the server 12 also executes a lighting scene management program, which may be implemented as a dynamic website or dedicated program, which is hosted by the webserver program and allows access from any computer executing a webbrowser program.
  • the lighting scene management program has access to the database 30 and allows reading and storing lighting scenes from or in the database 30 via an user interface, which may be created by the dynamic website.
  • the dynamic website also allows client computers to remotely manage the access to available lighting scenes by client lighting system controllers.
  • a client computer with secure access (for example by using the https protocol) to the managing functions of the lighting scene management program is the remote management client 14 , which may be implemented by a PC executing a webbrowser program. Alternatively, the client 14 may execute a dedicated remote access program for access to the lighting scene management program executed by the server 12 . Upon granted access, the remote management client 14 receives from the lighting scene management program data for displaying a user interface, which allows to remotely manage the lighting scenes stored in the database 30 on the server 12 .
  • FIG. 2 shows an example of the user interface locally displayed on a monitor of the server 12 or remotely displayed on the remote management client 14 .
  • the user interface is displayed in a window 32 of a graphical user interface of the operating system executed by the remote management client 14 , for example a window of a webbrowser executed by the remote management client 14 .
  • the window 32 comprises a list 34 of available lighting scenes (designated as themes), which allows selection of a desired lighting scene.
  • the lighting scene management program is adapted to load and display a picture associated to a lighting scene upon selection of the scene in the box 36 below the list 34 .
  • the picture may be a symbolic icon (like a “red heart” for Valentine) or an example photo of a store with that scene, so that a user may immediately get an impression of the selected lighting scene or theme.
  • a second list 38 shows all stores belonging to the retail chain. The stores shown in list 38 may have access to the lighting scenes stored in the database 30 on the server 12 . Access granting can be locally managed on the server 12 or by the remote management client 14 as described in the following: by using the list 38 , it may be determined what scenes are available for each of the local stores and every scene can be remotely activated. The remote access-granting can be performed by assigning scenes to the stores by dragging them from the “Available themes” list 32 to the “Stores” list 38 under the relevant store and dropping them there.
  • the user interface may also ask for conformation before activating any of the scenes, in order to prevent accidental changing of lighting in a store and by that possibly create discomfort for the people in the store.
  • Scenes displayed in window 38 do not necessarily have to be limited to the scenes downloaded or downloadable from the server: it may also show the scenes available only for that shop, these scenes may be stored at the local lighting system controller, but also on the server, in this case such scenes may be given a special distinction (e.g. via a symbol, distinctive font or text color) on the list 38 so that it is clear that those scenes are only available for that store.
  • all the lighting scenes may be already known locally in the lighting system 18 , for example locally stored in the local lighting controller 26 , but not accessible until the access is granted centrally on the server 12 .
  • Another option for implementation is that all the scenes are only stored centrally in the database 30 on the server 12 , and are only transferred to the local lighting controller 26 when they are enabled.
  • the lighting scene management program also offers an opportunity to check the effect of scene changing on a web-cam 22 , which is installed in a shop and monitors the lighting created by the luminaries 28 of the lighting system 18 of the shop.
  • the window 32 of the user interface comprises a window 40 displaying videodata 20 received from the local lighting controller 26 of the shop, which transmits the videodata 20 via the packet data network 24 to the server 12 , which executes the lighting scene management program.
  • a further window 42 provides a full control over the web-cam 42 in the shop, like rotating the web-cam and zooming. Thus, it is possible to remotely supervise the lighting scene created in the shop.
  • the web-cam 22 may alternatively also be directly connected to the server 12 via the packet data network 24 .
  • FIG. 3 shows an example of a local user interface for scene activation on a mobile device, for example a smartphone or a PDA, serving as a client lighting system controller 16 .
  • the local user interface may be implemented as a program, which is executed by the mobile device and grants access to the server 12 . It contains a list 44 of the scenes with their associated pictures 46 that were made available by the lighting scene management program in the user interface shown in FIG. 2 .
  • the local user interface may be dynamically updated. In an implementation this may be also a web-based user interface, where the lighting scene management program on the server may update the user interface.
  • the web user interface may be implemented such that it may be connected to the server 12 via the internet 24 or a local WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) and may check for example every 2 seconds if an updated web-page with available scenes is available.
  • WLAN Wireless Local Area Network
  • the controller 16 may transmit a command for example via a local WLAN in the shop to the local lighting system controller 26 , which instructs the local lighting system controller 26 to download the selected lighting scene from the server 12 via the internet and to configure the lighting in the shop according to the downloaded lighting scene by controlling the luminaries 28 in accordance with the presets of the downloaded lighting scene.
  • the client lighting system controller 16 may upon selection of an entry in the list 44 download a lighting scene from the server 12 via the internet, and then transmit the downloaded lighting scene to the local lighting system controller 26 .
  • the client lighting system controller 16 may upon selection of an entry in the list 44 may instruct the local lighting system controller 26 to activate the already locally available lighting scene selected by the user.
  • the invention can be applied to all atmosphere creation systems being adapted to create atmospheres such as lighting scenes. Particularly, the invention can be used to centrally control and manage atmosphere creation with different atmosphere creation systems, such as several stores or shops of a retail chain, also stores in stores.
  • the invention can particularly be applied to create atmosphere in store, where music, sound and fragrance are handeled in the same manner as described above for lighting.
